Accounting Support Specialist

Robert Half

Job Description

Job Description

Accounting Support Specialist (Contract) – Hybrid after training

Duration: Through August (potential to extend)

About the Role:

We’re partnering with a well-established organization to bring on three temporary team members to support a high-impact project focused on reconciling and updating agent account records.

This is a process-driven, detail-oriented role where you’ll work across multiple systems to complete manual financial adjustments and help reduce a backlog of transactions. If you enjoy structured work, staying organized, and seeing tangible progress each day, this is a great fit.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Process agent debt transfers across multiple internal systems
  • Ensure accuracy and consistency between administrative and accounting records
  • Follow step-by-step procedures (SOPs) to complete manual adjustments
  • Document updates clearly and maintain organized records
  • Research and resolve discrepancies as needed
  • Support related workflows, including account updates and transfers

What a Typical Day Looks Like

  • Log into multiple systems and review your assigned workload
  • Work through a queue of transactions, completing detailed updates and adjustments
  • Track your progress as you move through each item
  • Collaborate with your team when questions arise
  • Wrap up your day ensuring all work is accurate, balanced, and properly documented

Schedule & Training

Hours: 8:00–4:00 or 8:30–4:30 (Monday–Friday)

Training: Onsite for the first few days, then transition to hybrid/remote

Onboarding: Structured training + hands-on support to get you up to speed quickly

What to Expect

This role is not customer-facing and is less about multitasking and more about focused, independent work. Success comes from being:

  • Detail-oriented
  • Process-driven
  • Consistent and reliable

You’ll be part of a supportive team and play a key role in helping move important work forward.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Clear expectations and structured training
  • Opportunity to step into a project with immediate impact
  • Great fit for someone who enjoys organized, measurable work

If you’re someone who takes pride in accuracy and enjoys working through detailed processes, we’d love to connect.

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong attention to detail and accuracy
  • Comfortable working in a high-volume, task-oriented environment
  • Ability to follow structured processes and SOPs
  • Basic understanding of accounting concepts (or ability to learn quickly)
  • Experience working across multiple systems or platforms
  • Reliable, self-motivated, and able to stay focused in a repetitive workflow
